What is the Consolidation Process?

When a borrower consolidates loans in the Direct Consolidation Loan Program, the U.S. Department of Education (Department) pays off the original Federal education loans and originates a new loan for the total amount of the loan(s) consolidated. Here's how that works:
Step 1: Application Review
We review the borrower's application and enter it into our system. If there is missing or incorrect information, we attempt to contact the borrower directly and/or send a letter identifying the needed information. If a borrower applied for the loan by phone or through the web, the Loan Consolidation Department sends a promissory note to be signed and returned by the borrower. The borrower has 14 days to provide the information to us or the application is cancelled.

How Does Consolidation Affect My School's Default Ratio?

Federal Consolidation Loans and Federal Direct Consolidation Loans are not counted directly in the cohort default rate calculation. However, the status of a consolidation loan may affect how the loan(s) that was paid off by the consolidation loan is included in the cohort default rate calculation."
If all of a borrower's underlying loans were included in your school's cohort default rate calculation before they were consolidated, the status of the consolidation loan has no effect on your subsequent cohort default rate calculations. However, if an underlying loan was not included in your cohort default rate calculation before it was consolidated, the consolidation loan's default may cause that underlying loan to be counted as defaulted when it is included in your cohort default rate.
Please see the Cohort Default Rate Guide for complete details and information on consolidation and cohort default rates.
